Netflix viewers praise Michelle Keegan after binge-watching new thriller Fool Me Once

Netflix viewers can't stop gushing about Michelle Keegan after binge-watching her latest show, Fool Me Once.

The series dropped on the streaming platform on New Year's Day and has been top of the most-watched board ever since.

You can watch the trailer below:

Keegan stars as grief-stricken Maya Stern, who is dealing with the death of her husband, Joe (The Hobbit's Richard Armitage).

The series follows Maya as she tries to navigate Joe's death and piece together how and why he died - which is made even more confusing when she spots him on their daughter Lily's baby cam just days after the funeral.

Joining Keegan is a star-studded cast featuring Murder Mystery star Adeel Akhtar playing Detective Sergeant Sami Kierce and Absolutely Fabulous icon Joanna Lumley, who leads alongside Keegan as mother-in-law Judith Burkett.

Based on a Harlan Coben novel, the show is full of epic twists and turns and has a pretty gobsmacking ending, so it's no wonder fans have been glued to it.
